There seems to be an inconsistency between release 4.9-RC and 5.1 ufs support. If I fsck the same ufs (type 1 of course) file system on both releases, each claims that the other has left incorrect summary data in the superblock. Presumably only one can be correct. I just don't know which to blame. I couldn't find a FreeBSD problem report about bad summary data. I will submit one, but since FreeBSD 4.9 is about to be released, someone might like to check this out. I happen to have multiple FreeBSD operating systems installed on the same computer. This might also be an issue if you move an external disk between computers. I don't know if the problem shows up on all file systems. It seems to happen on all the half dozen or so of the file systems that my 4.9-RCx and 5.1 systems share. Dan Strick strick@covad.net
